Hell no

They have one of the easiest schedules in the league so far. We’ll see what they look like in April.

Regular season sure. Playoffs? Everyone on the board would end up hating him

Sixers have their pick 1-6 protected. If am Morey I would say **** it, sell Embiid and PG for a million picks and start over again.

Nah.

They are a good team but I'm not worried about them. Especially if we have Mitch. Let them enjoy their early season success. It won't matter next April and May.

SO we're going to just let the Cavs go 82-0....ok.

Yep. His NBA Superstar free trial expired.

Went from a premium player to the ad-supported version.

Obi over Hali was the right pick all along. Sad.

Bill SImmons' current top 25.

I’d prefer towns over nine of those players.

I like how KAT has played well against opposing bigs Giannis and Bam who are on the list, as well as Turner

Philly is gonna bury themself too far before they can crawl out of it. They’re going to play themselves into the 8th or 7th seed again with no rhythm.

At this rate, they're not going to be able to rest Embiid the way they want.

Imagine him coming back with a good game or two then sitting out the first back 2 back that comes along, after missing so many

He scored 3 points and they beat the Sixers?

But this happens every year. He'll play right for a bit and then doesn't.

They saying he clamped up Paul George last night. Seems like a better fit in their starting lineup. Not much of a Cam fan but I was just adding on to your point about coaching. JJ Reddick finally benched D'Lo which should've happened a long time ago. JJ seems like a really good coach. AD and Reaves are also having career years under him.

Fair enough. You know that's a Cap trigger though :lol:

Yeah - if Redick can get him playing D and spotting up he can be an asset for them. He can clearly coach Xs and Os.

Would you rather have him or Brunson? Jrue is also better than that kid.

Cant believe how bad the east has been, so many garbage teams already.
